Betty Dodson with Carlin Ross
Better Orgasms. Better World.
Richard Pacheco and I go back a long way. We first crossed paths years ago at the Adult Industry Awards. He was on stage receiving an award for best X-rated films and I was in the audience. Standing behind the podium, Richard was making strange movements that turned out to be taking off his black jockey shorts. After he put his pants back on, he gave me a fabulous tribute about the important contribution I’d made to the field of human sexuality without ever getting any awards. Then he threw his black jockey shorts as far as he could into the audience and asked folks to pass them back to me. I was standing midway in the room. When they finally reached me, I held them to my face and breathed in his scent amidst howls of laughter. That was the best award I’ve ever received.
Since then we have supported one another to get our sexual memoirs published. I think he’s a terrific writer with a great sense of humor. He thinks the same about me. He’s been working on his book for 23 years and I’ve been writing and shopping mine for 27 years. I’ve offered Richard to join me with an e-book that we can sell from dodsonandross. Here’s one of his chapters followed by my answer to his question:
Chapter Five
The Wonder of It All
Awe. A pair of breasts walked into a crowded room the other day. Men gasped. The other body parts of the woman who owned them were largely undistinguished, but her breasts were truly exemplary. Normally, I'm not moved to exotic poetry by tits. I'm sure I've already mentioned that it's the female ass that usually awakens all my calls to romance.
